My uncle made a mistake when putting together my grandmother's 2015 taxes. It can cost her estate €30000, there isn't that kind of money. The solicitor dealing with the estate has to hand in the tax forms today and my father and aunt have told them that they should include a note that a mistake was made when filling in the forms and that they will be corrected. Luckily you get 5 years to correct it.
Now my uncle must be in tight spot: he loathes admitting it when he has done something wrong, but if he doesn't admit it and change the mistake he, my aunt and father have to pay for it, literally. And my uncle doesn't have a lot money.
We're now left wondering why he didn't fill out the tax forms like he had done in 2013 and 2014. The solicitor couldn't reach him or his partner yesterday. He'll probably blame my father somehow.
